All you need is a Atmega 32 microcontroller and an ENC28J60 serial Ethernet chip. This chip is a great solution for other microcontrol-ler families as well such as PIC, dsPIC etc. The CviLux CJCBA8HF1Y0 RJ-45 connector is used for connection to the Ethernet network. An LED connected to the microcontroller PORTB.pin0 simulates a home appliance we want to control.

The mikroC PRO for AVR compiler con-tains the SPI_Ethernet library that will considerably simplify the process of writ-ing a program for the microcontroller. By using a few routines from this library, it is possible to create the program that will enable electrical appliances in your home to be controlled via a web browser.

It is necessary to perform the following op-erations within the program: Step 1. Create an html page to run the microcontroller through. Import it in the code as a string.

Step 2. Set IP, DNS, Gateway addresses and Subnet mask obtained from your internet provider.

After the web browser “GET” request is re-ceived, sent from your computer to the con-trol system IP address, the microcontroller will respond with a web page stored in its memory. This page will then be automati-cally displayed on the computer screen by the browser.When the ON command is received, the LED connected to the PORTA.0 will be turned on. Likewise, when the OFF command is re-ceived the LED will be turned off . If you have a relay instead of LED, it is possible to control any appliance such as lighting, se-curity system, heating system etc.

The control of any home appliance consists of entering control system IP address in the web browser and specifying the desired commands. Of course, it is possible to control more than

Home automation, home control, smart or digital home are just diff erent

names for comfort, convenience, security and power saving. Power saving systems are of increas-

ing importance nowadays. Even though such systems are very expensive, rest assured that they can also be very cheap if

you make them yourself. There are many ways to control a smart home system. One of them is over Ethernet.

Serial Ethernet module connected to EasyAVR5A Development System

For example, our local network parameters are as follows:

IP : 192.168.20.60 (Control System address)DNS : 192.168.20.1 (Domain Name System address)GATEWAY : 192.168.20.6 (Gateway address)SUBNET : 255.255.255.0 (Subnet mask)

Step 3. Disable PORTA analogue inputs. The microcontroller pin should be cleared and confi gured as an output.

Step 4. Initialize the SPI module of the Atmega 32 microcontroller. Step 5. Initialize the Serial Ethernet module chip ENC28J60.

Step 6. Write the code within the Spi_Ethernet_userTCP function that will, after receiving com mand via web browser, turn on/off the LED connected to the PORTA.0.

Step 7. Read received data in an endless loop.

The most important part of the program is the Spi_Ethernet_userTCP function, processing all received commands
